Ami and Giulio did not know each other, their moms did not know each other, but I knew their moms. I knew that if I asked them to bring their kids to the studio they would be happy. And they were indeed. It was something to observe how two children who had never met each other before, also thanks to their uncomplicated and playful nature, were able to stand together, to play and to have fun together in front of the camera. And the outcome was anything but obvious!! Thank you Francesca and Tomomi for sticking to my plan!

After a few moments of hesitation, Simone fit in the studio atmosphere massively well. He clearly had a soft spot for his little brother Samuele, who seemed instead to enjoy a lot of free space around him… even though, when Simone approached him, he then would suddenly try to squeeze him and kiss him! A caring mamma Francesca and a mighty nonna Rossana accompanied these two little princes to their portrait session and we framed them in a few photos!

This family seemed so perfect and they were so well-prepared for their shooting, that you might think they were taken from a tv advert! Thank you, Olga & Co, for coming to the studio!

Arianna wasn’t intimated by the studio (or maybe just the first 3 minutes!). She was into every.thing that was happening. These candid shots reflect her personality. It was a pleasure to experience the bond between her and her parents!

The 1st session you have in the studio can be challenging. Based on my experience with kids, less is more. After a few “serious presidential” headshots (with his super cute red bowtie!), Luigi was delighted to play with a clothes peg, which was of course a good solution to gain his attention!

It made good to have these two siblings in the studio. They were different character wise, but there was a deep, positive bond between them. And their gaze had a similar deepness!

I had the pleasure to have Zeno and Zoe in the studio for a lively portrait session! The were gorgeous and the outcome was successful. Thanks to mamma Cate, who brought the appropriate toys-distractions!

They say that a super mum and a super dad will pave your way and I cannot disagree with that! It was a lovely experience for me to take some portraits of this well-knit family. Elisa and Vittorio are amazingly caring and attentive parents and their two little princesses adored them! Both Livia and Amelia displayed enchanting, bubbly and strong personalities, apart from being extremely cute!

Emi was a tiny bunch of love who already had clear ideas, and that included staying in her mom’s arms as long as possible! The studio experience, at first, is intimidating for babies, who need to be reassured (mostly because of the lighting, the flashlight and the backdrop) and made them to feel as comfortable as possible. During this short session everything went smoothly and Emi revealed herself as a beautiful, expressive princess! Thank you Tomomi for trusting my photographic capabilities!

Press yourself close
to the ground.

The earth
still smells of summer
and your body
still smells of love.

But the grass
is already yellowed above you.
The wind is cold
and full of thistledown.

And the dream which waylays you
shadow-footed
your dream
has autumn eyes.

– Poem by Hilde Domin

We played quite a lot in the studio during this portrait session. Elena’s big eyes and the blue hat won it all, eventually.

Looking back at these photos dated spring 2016, I immediately sense the simplicity and the deepness of Diletta and Davide’s love, as well as their pride in little Arianna, who had realised that she was the centre of the attention and liked that! Enjoy these lovely memories.

Elena was young, beautiful and approachable. I can tell that she has been a source of inspirations for many portrait photographers!

I was lucky enough to have the chance to work in Parma for members of the Japanese community whose family was part of. On this occasion I took some portraits of this lovely in a park. Slightly shy at the beginning, during the course of our photo session Yukari discovered the taste of posing as a model and, at the end, she was clearly mastering it and was all smiles and self-confidence!

Momma’s whisperer!

Yumi was one of my favorite models, maybe that’s also why it became effortless to take pictures of her! She was gentle and sweet but also determined and dignified with a perfectionist side. She listened carefully and was able to focus quickly. Her skin was beautiful and her features were harmonious. I quite miss that time!
